Three years ago I was in search of the very same thing and stumbled upon Launch Academy. Since then, this educational institution has been instrumental in nurturing my son's personal and academic growth. Initially, I held reservations about enrolling my son in a private school, primarily concerning tuition expenses and daily commuting logistics. My journey started with a profound understanding of the concept of Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE), which mandates that schools provide tailored special education to address each child's specific needs. It became increasingly clear, after years of struggling with my son's elementary school, starting from kindergarten, that they were falling short in upholding this fundamental right. Our discovery of Launch Academy came through a trusted colleague whose son had graduated from Launch the previous year and a freshman in college. She had wrestled with her child's education for years, transitioning him from the public system to multiple private schools. She confided that she had begun to doubt her son's chances of ever graduating from high school until she turned to Launch Academy as a last-ditch effort for his future, which remarkably proved to be successful. After hearing her story I was still a bit skeptical, but we decided to visit and tour the school with my son. Meeting with the head of the school, Mr. Richard Kelly, was a life-changing experience. Mr. Kelly, a remarkable individual, effortlessly engaged with my shy, introverted son, and within a mere 10 minutes, my son eagerly joined a class without any hesitation. The dedicated staff and educators are not only highly qualified but also genuinely caring. They go above and beyond to ensure that each student's unique needs are met. The curriculum is innovative and engaging, keeping students excited about learning. My son has developed a strong foundation in various subjects and has shown remarkable progress since joining Launch. Prior to Launch Academy, my son used to complain of various illnesses daily in an attempt to stay home from school. Now he is excited about going to school and for the last 3 years he has maintained near-perfect attendance. Launch Academy places a strong emphasis on character development and instills values such as respect, responsibility, and empathy in its students. This holistic approach to education is commendable and sets the school apart. Launch Academy has consistently surpassed each and every expectation. The transformation in my son is truly remarkable. He has evolved into a confident young man with an insatiable thirst for knowledge. I am so grateful to each and every staff member, you guys are amazing!!

I have not touched math for over 10 years so it was nice for me to have a math tutor for the GRE,…read moreand I think Shahin knows her stuff and is a good teacher when you have her attention. With that being said, I am sad to say that my experience has not been the very best. It was hard for us to set up/ and confirm appointments because I work and she was busy (she had a baby a couple months ago, so I think that triggered a lot of it). But I had to do 6 hours with her because she said that was the minimum and we broke these up into a couple of sessions. I also live in Houston so it was a trek getting out there to Stafford, so I usually give myself an hour before our sessions to arrive early and prepare. Among these times, I don't think there was one time where she was on time, nevertheless early. I would soon learn to bring something to do in the parking lot or do her homework while waiting. During our sessions her phone would constantly be on, and she would be texting and taking up phone calls which was a bit distracting for me (given, I believe most were from her parents regarding her baby). And there were times where I noticed she was setting up future tutorials which made me wonder why she was not as quick to respond to my requests. There were also issues for me where before my session ends, kids would be coming in to ask her questions, asking her about this and that, sharpening their pencils in the machine, etc. so our session would end early, or I was eager to get of there and let her deal with her incoming students. I have since then taken Kaplan and compared the two styles regarding GRE math; Shahin will teach you the quickest method to solve algebraically, where Kaplan teaches you that not all problems need to be fully solved, but to assess the problem and try to come up with an answer. I preferred the latter (Kaplan), but in all honestly I think that's just a personal preference.
